4Sorry .....
ANSWER for 1st one is 19/42
I think the mistake may be in considering 5 or 6 defective articles since only max 4 r possible
1) In a batch of 10 articles, 4 articles are defective. 6 articles are taken from the batch for inspection.
If more than 2 articles in this batch are defective, the whole batch is rejected.
Find the probability that the batch will be rejected.
2)An author writes a good book with a probability of 1/2 .
If it is good it is published with a probability of 2/3.
If it is not, it is published with a probability of 1/4.
Find the probability that he will get atleast one book published if he writes two.

391) i am not sure but no other idea strking me as of now.. X be no :of defective articles picked. so we need to find P[X=3]+P[X=4]+P[X=5]+P[X=6] = 3/10C6 +4/10C6+5/10C6+6/10C6 =18/10C6
44Hey I got the solution now
P = 6C3 4C3 + 6C2 4C3
6C6 4C0 + 6C5 4C1 + 6C4 4C2 +6C34C3 + 6C2 4C4
= 19 / 42 ANSWER
4Second ans copied from a link given by b555
A random book will be published with probability 1/2 x 2/3 + 1/2 x 1/4 = 11/24
. The probability of him writing two books none of which gets published must therefore be
[1 - (11/24)]2
The probability that he we will get at least one published is therefore:
1 - (1 - 11/24) 2 = 407/576 ANSWER

the bus continues on its way after the stop, there will again be 'n' passengers in the bus.
